The Croakestra on Thankful Thursday

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia

And speaking of thankfuls, we are all thankful for Angel Brian, who is hosting Thankful Thursday, as well as Angel Sammy for the picture every week!

Xena: We have a fun picture today. I bet everyone is having a great time with it. I just had to jump in the picture so I could be part of the band/orchestra!

The Croakestra by Xena

The amphibian band walked past my home,
One looked at me and said, “Shalom.”
.I said, “I’ll sing with you, if you please.”

“Let me tell you about the birds and the bees
And the flowers and the trees
And the moon up above
And a thing called “Love” ～～”*

One frog fell in love with me,
And got me ‘neath the pine tree.
I said, “You better let me be!
Or you’ll end up an amputee!

Mom Amy: Guess I’ll do the thankfuls today. We’ve been dealing with a car on which the air and heat has gone out. Not good in Tennessee, or anywhere! Yesterday we got a used EV. I’m so thankful that we were able to do that, and I’ll be even more thankful when we get the 220 volt charger so we can drive it! 🤣

I’m also very thankful that the hubby decided we need to learn more ballroom dance and get better at what we already know. I totally agree! He’s hired a professional for a one hour lesson every week.

And, of course, I’m more than thankful for our three wonderful pups who give us so much joy, comfort and companionship. I’m looking at my sweet Xena sound asleep in a doggie bed under my desk at work. (She’s exhausted from greeting everyone who came in today with big wags and lots of joy.)
Wishing everyone a thankful Thursday!

  9. Mom and Dad are still using it by charging it at a trickle, LOL. But WE don’t get to ride in it until the backseat protectors are delivered by Amazon. We’ll let you know how we like them. XOX Xena, Lucy and Chia
